Hi all,
Our hours page has some history! We originally used Andrew Darby's code using
Google Calendar. Then Google Calendar went belly up and a former colleague
rewrote the code as https://github.com/LincolnUniLTL/calibr
This required regularly uploading a file with new hours, and our hours
Hi Jeffrey,
I started looking into this a couple of years ago (using LibraryH3lp's API
even) and then the project got pushed to the backburner due to too many other
priorities.

I actually feel that the tech side of library things may be less bewildering to
a non-tech person than the *culture*. Things like:
* the way any progress happens in University Time
* the way we're dependent on vendors in ways that mean that yes, often our
systems SUCK but we just have to play
Hi all,
I'm looking for a web-based tool that would allow users to easily enter
statistics (eg desk/consultations stats) as the day progresses; and which then
makes the stored stats available in a variety of ways. Reports, pretty graphs,
downloadable csvs; the one I personally really care

We'd been using Andrew Darby's method and ran into this problem earlier this
year. A (now ex-)colleague coded Calibr
(https://github.com/LincolnUniLTL/calibr ) when we ran into this problem, and
we've been running it since. Does depend on tidy csv though.

We recently investigated this (for purposes of working with Alma, a web-based

Morning, all,
We have a small dilemma:

RESTful API. It’s on The Cloud so we’re not going to be getting direct access

2. We have an existing application that would be more efficient

Probably the main reason it rarely happens is that most people aren't in the

As written the function convert(form) has some extra stuff around DOIs and EBL

People did raise specific issues with Zoia which can reasonably be fit into the
